'''3.''' Open the RPi5's DSI connector by softly pulling up on both sides of the tiny black/grey tongue at once. It opens only about 2mm. When it's totally open, push the ribbon cable inside, straight down, with the black shiny side at the end of the cable facing out (towards the HDMI printed on the RPi5 board). The copper contacts on the end of the cable that are pushed into the connector should be facing the RPi5 Ethernet jack. '''All flat cables in the V5 kit are reversible, so you use can either end''', while taking care to have the black shiny side facing away from the Ethernet jack. When the cable is tightly inserted, close the connector by pushing down on the tongue with 2 fingers, one of each hand. Pay attention to ensure the cable does not move out of the connector. If it's not well inserted or not straight, repeat the operation until it's OK. ''Note: There is no blue side shown in the photographs.''

{{NoteBox|Probably you are thinking that we could use longer cables so these final steps would be easier. And you are right, it would be easier to assemble, but the resulting device wouldn't be so good. Longer cables means more EMI (Electro-Magnetic Interference). The DSI signal coming out the RPi is specially noisy and although the DSI cable we use already include some EMI shielding, the audio circuitry is close, just a few centimeters, and we prefer to reduce EMI to the minimum. Think that you assemble your zynthian once, but you (hopefully!) will use it for years and i'm pretty sure you want the highest quality of sound, so it's worth the extra effort to connect shorter cables.}}
